Meh, I don't think it was funny at all.

9 reasons not to date a T-Rex was hilarious, however.

osiris · Dec 9, 2008, 12:49 PM

Make sure you get a DTV converter on that thing or reason #2 "Better Reception" will be worthless.

Oisín · Dec 9, 2008, 12:52 PM

Woohoo! I can finally timeline someone. I’m finally not the last to see something.

*does little happy dance*

And yes, the T-rex one is much better.

In this rare instance, I totally agree.

On a semi-related note, the singles listings for my area on that site are quite scary.

It's too bad you bothered to tell me, unlike your disagreements, apparently.

Maflynn · Dec 9, 2008, 01:03 PM

I can't believe I wasted 10 seconds of my life reading that web page.

No need to waste time on minor disagreements. It's the holidays.

Wait until after Jan 1. Then you shall be afraid. Very afraid. And itchy.

Well it is butter, so **** you, you ****tard.

And you're the tart wearing stockings, brightly colored ones at that.

I have a Christmas trough that attracts unicorns.

"Christmas trough"? Is that what we're calling your bum nowadays?

Oh, so you are wearing brightly colored stockings?

Kinky.

They're not going to be brightly colored for long when I stick my foot up your "Christmas Trough", insolent wanker.

Laugh it up, funny boy. Go ahead, enjoy yourself.

Just be forewarned - and post warned, that I'll no longer be Mr. Nice Guy come Jan 1.
Good day, sir.
Or night, whatever time zone, you useless roll of unsticky duct tape on the dusty floor of the women's toilet.

Man, it's been a while, my Archnemesis.

osiris · Dec 9, 2008, 01:59 PM

Yes, indeed, my foe. Yes indeed.

That picture implies that it's back on track.

Dakar V · Dec 9, 2008, 02:54 PM

Not if we have any say.

With that in mind, new sig:

?

Dakar V · Dec 9, 2008, 03:03 PM

I'm leaning towards no. Even if the 90º reorientation isn't gimmicky, I think it's going to wear thin after a while.

I really like the full picture, my parent's camera is weird and the colors came out looking really good. The problem is that there are people in the picture, and this was the only way to make them...not in the picture.

I think this is such great advertising for their dating site, really love it

needs a ponies one though

I was thinking more along the lines of roadkill. But ponies are ok too.

Likely because he had some help on that:

Illustrated by Matthew Inman , with some help on the Dinosaur jokes from Rebecca Kelley

Typical illustrator trying to run with his funny friend's joke and falling flat.

Lesson learned: Don't post jokes from your dating site.

From a sketch show called The Wrong Door, that used CGI in the sketches. This was part of a series of sketches where the woman is dating a T-Rex.

They revealed the true use of the unicorn horn on Robot Chicken.
